Abstract
- Multi-core fibers have been widely used for vector-bending sensing due to their off-axis distributed cores. In contrast to vector-bending sensors based on Bragg gratings, fiber Fabry–Perot (F–P) interferometers are more advantageous due to their ease of fabrication and potential for introducing the Vernier effect to further improve sensitivity. We propose and experimentally demonstrate a cascaded Fabry–Perot (F–P) cavity vector bending sensor. From the experimental results, the sensor has a strong bending dependence with a maximum sensitivity of 123.12 pm/m−1, and the curvature magnitude and direction can be reconstructed from the tilted wavelength shift of the asymmetric fiber-core F–P cavities.
